Today’s ‘Guest Writer’ is Janet, she reflects on and responds tothe opening line of our verses for this year (Daniel 6: 26-27)
‘For he is the living God and he endures for ever.’
What God’s Enduring Love means to me
Everlasting Love
Never give up Outstretched hand
Divine, Deity Vibrant
Ultimate Embodied in Jesus Christ
Rescues and saves
Incarnation
Nurturer
Grace
God endures in me
Life is like a long road for me
I journey on it every day
Not knowing some days where it will lead
It twists and bends – it curves
But rarely straight
I stumble, I fall, I run.
God picks me up when I fall
Holds out a hand to steady me when I stumble
And cheers me on when I run.
His strength is my endurance or the other way
And I can carry on the journey of life
With God’s hand to guide me
And my faith in his endurance and strength
I will receive God’s promise at the end.
God endures me
His grace and mercy are free
My strength come to me every day
From the lord God to whom I pray
No burden too much for him
He gives me all I can bare
And when I’ve had enough, he takes his share
To help me cope when he listens to my prayer
For forgiveness I ask and he knows when I despair
He’s with me in my lonely hours
As I wait for normal days
He endures my selfish tantrums
Gives me strength to endure and carry on
I know God gives me endurance to see me through
I have my garden and my tree to focus on
My tree still stands firm and so do I. Amen
